Gladrags Mega Model Contest is for the females while Gladrags Manhunt Contest is for the males of the country.

"First its very hard to get this kind of body, of course they are younger and I'm sure they didn't have much trouble but you do need to have a lot of confidence and this is a great platform if you have that, yes, to show it off," said Mahima.
